Jared is making bookmarks how many bookmarks can he make fram a 15 yard spool of ribion
Each bookmark is 10.5 inches
1 yd = 36 in
15 yd = 15 * 36 = 540 in
540 / 10.5 = 51.429
51 full bookmarks
To determine how many bookmarks Jared can make from a 15-yard spool of ribbon, we need to convert the given measurements into consistent units.
1 yard is equal to 36 inches. So, we can convert the length of the ribbon from yards to inches as follows:
15 yards * 36 inches/yard = 540 inches
Now that we have the total length of the ribbon in inches, we can calculate the number of bookmarks Jared can make.
Since each bookmark requires 10.5 inches of ribbon, we can divide the total length of the ribbon by the length needed for each bookmark:
540 inches / 10.5 inches = 51.43 bookmarks (rounded to two decimal places)
Therefore, Jared can make approximately 51 bookmarks from a 15-yard spool of ribbon.
